Chronicles of Urban Nostalgia<\/span>
Exploring Time and Conflict<\/h2>\n\n\n\nFor the third year, we present an exhibition made with 3 voices, on 3 territories<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n- Marseille (France), 5 art works were selected in the frame of the 37 Festival Les Instants Vid\u00e9o<\/em> <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Montreal (Canada), Rojin Shafiei<\/strong> wrote a curatorial text inspired by the art works<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Ispahan (Iran), Elnaz Rajabiyan<\/strong> will create the setting for the works and the public<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
In the relentless chase for money, we battle with cities, seeking peace within their concrete embrace. We delve into the depths of our memories, searching for fragments of our past, hoping to unearth the best versions of ourselves, buried in nostalgia.\u2028
Time, ever fleeting, slips through our grasp as we run breathlessly after it. Humans, forever in pursuit, can never quite catch the elusive seconds. This endless race breeds conflicts within us, spilling over into the spaces between us. We clash, not only with each other but with our own reflections, distorted by the urgency of time.
\u2028In the end, we strive to forget. We yearn to erase the traces of our hurried lives, the marks left by our desperate attempts to outrun the ticking clock. We long to forget how fervently we ran and how swiftly time flew past us. But what remains? The memories, faint echoes of moments lived \u2013 from when, though?
This exhibition invites you to pause, to step out of the race, and to reflect. Through video art and electronic poetry, we explore the ephemeral nature of human experience, the ceaseless pursuit of time, and the inevitable conflicts that arise from our interactions with the world and each other.\u00a0
Like a city unfolding its layers, the works presented here reveal the multifaceted human condition. They navigate the paradox of our existence \u2013 our drive to achieve, our struggle for peace, and our yearning for a connection to our past. These artistic expressions weave together personal and collective histories, challenging us to confront our nostalgia, acknowledge our struggles, and ponder what truly remains when all else fades.
